Análisis comparativo de impactos ambientales y productividad Ex Ante y Ex Post al proyecto de mejoramiento del horno de cocción en la Empresa Ladrillera Casa-Teja

Abstract

The high pollution due mainly to population growth, production and consumption has generated great changes to the environment, the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, drastic changes in temperature, among others. For this reason, the need to develop improvements in the production processes of companies in order to reduce pollution has been promoted. For this reason, this paper develops a comparative analysis of the environmental impacts and productivity Ex Ante and Ex Post to the project to improve the firing oven of a brick and tile production company. Applying qualitative and quantitative methodologies that allow obtaining data on the impacts that are generated in order to be able to determine the pollution values that are emitted and compare them with the limits allowed by current regulations, as well as quantify the improvement in the production process. Finally, the Ex Ante results show great contamination caused mainly by the artisan oven, where certain points exceed the allowed limit. After the changes, there are increases in productivity, as well as the reduction of emissions.
